Utmattningsanalys av svetsförband på pendelarm tillhörande Eco Logs skördare 590D : jämförelse mellan tre utvärderingsmetoder

Karlsson, Olle January 2012 (has links)
Eco Log AB i Söderhamn är en tillverkare av skogsmaskiner. De tillverkar både skotare och skördare. På deras skördare sitter fyra pendelarmar som ersätter hjulupphängningen på fordonet. Dessa motverkar att fordonet lutar vid körning i sluttningar. Varje pendelarm drivs av en hydraulkolv som justerar nivelleringen. Då inga beräkningar med avseende på utmattning och livslängd genomförts sedan en omkonstruktion av pendelarmarna är det nödvändigt att analysera och utvärdera pendelarmarna. Syftet med examensarbetet är att analysera ett antal, maximalt tre, av pendelarmens svetsfogar med avsikt på utmattning. Jämförelse mellan de tre olika utvärderingsmetoderna Effective notch stress, Nominell spänning och Hot spot kommer genomföras. På begäran av Eco Log redovisas ej några värden på beräknade livslängder och spänningar utan endast en jämförelse mellan de olika metoderna redovisas där Nominella spännings-metoden används som referensvärde. En inledande spänningsanalys på en pendelarm på deras största skördare, Eco Log 590D, genomfördes. Denna analys, där endast en förenklad pendelarm användes, visade att det mest belastade svetsförbandet befann sig i nivå med infästningen av lagret i ytterlådans konstruktion. Detta svetsförband analyserades sedan vidare med avseende på utmattning. De mer noggranna utmattningsanalyserna baserades på tre olika utvärderingsmetoder för spänningar, Hot spot-, Effective notch stress- och Nominella spännings-metoden. Hot spot-metoden inkluderar membranspänningar och böjspänningar för det utvalda svetsförbandet. Effective notch stress inkluderar mebramspänningar, böjspänningar och den olinjära spänningstoppen för att kunna analysera spänningskoncentrationer i svetsrot eller tå. Nominella spänningar inkluderar normalspänningar. Genom att modellera det utvalda svetsförbandet med dessa tre metoder erhölls information om den maximala spänningsvidden. Denna spänningsvidd applicerades sedan i en arbetsgång för utmattningsberäkningar där en livslängd beräknades fram. Denna livslängd blev för Nominella och Effective notch-metoden blev densamma och för Hot spot-metoden blev den dubbelt så lång. Denna beräkningsgång baseras på International Institute of Welding.Denna beräknade livslängd var betydligt mindre än vad Eco Log hade förväntat sig. Dock är osäkerheten vid beräkningar och test med avseende på utmattning stor och därav borde även provning genomföras för att säkerställa livslängden. / Eco Log AB is a manufacturer of forestry equipment. They manufacture both forwarders and harvesters. On their harvesters there are four pendulum arms that replace the suspension on their vehicles. The pendulum arms anti tilts the vehicle when driving in slopes. Every pendulum arm is individually driven by hydraulic cylinders that adjust the leveling. Given that no calculations with respect to fatigue and service life since a redesign were made, analysis and evaluation of the pendulum arm was necessary. The purpose of this thesis is to analyze an number of, maximum three, of the pendulums welds with respect to fatigue. Comparison between three different evaluation methods Effective notch stress, Nominal stress and Hot spot will be conducted. On request from Eco Log no values regarding calculated service lifetime and stress will be presented, only a comparison between the different methods were the Nominal stress-method is used as reference. An initial stress analysis on the pendulum arm on their largest harvester, the Eco Log 590D, was conducted. This analysis, which only used a simplified pendulum arm, indicated that the most load carrying load were located at the attachment of the bearing thus on the outer box-constructuib. This welded joint was then further analyzed with respect to fatigue. These fatigue analysis was based on three different evaluation methods, Hot spot-, Effective notch stress- and Nominal stress-method. The Hot spot method includes membrane stress and bending stress for the selected weld. Effective notch stress includes membrane stress, bending stress and the nonlinear stress peak in order to analyze stress concentration in the weld root and weld toe. Nominell stress includes normal stresses. By constructing the selected welded joint with these three evaluation methods, information regarding the maximal stress range was given. This stress range was then applied to a specific working procedure for fatigue calculations were the results obtained in expected service-life. The service-life for the Nominal and Effective notch stress-method were almost identic meanwhile for the Hot spot-method the service-life was twice as long. This working procedure is based on the International Institute of Welding. This calculated service-life were significantly less than what Eco Log had expected. The uncertainty of calculation for fatigue is however big and therefore testing should also be carried out to ensure the service life of pendulum arm.

Dimensional analysis based CFD modelling for power transformers

Zhang, Xiang January 2017 (has links)
Reliable thermal modelling approaches are crucial to transformer thermal design and operation. The highest temperature in the winding, usually referred to as the hot-spot temperature, is of the greatest interest because the insulation paper at the hot-spot undergoes the severest thermal ageing, and determines the life expectancy of the transformer insulation. Therefore, the primary objective of transformer thermal design is to control the hot-spot temperature rise over the ambient temperature within certain limit. For liquid-immersed power transformers, the hot-spot temperature rise over the ambient temperature is controlled by the winding geometry, power loss distribution, liquid flow rate and liquid properties. In order to obtain universally applicable thermal modelling results, dimensional analysis is adopted in this PhD thesis to guide computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations for disc-type transformer windings in steady state and their experimental verification. The modelling work is split into two parts on oil forced and directed (OD) cooling modes and oil natural (ON) cooling modes. COMSOL software is used for the CFD simulation work For OD cooling modes, volumetric oil flow proportion in each horizontal cooling duct (Pfi) and pressure drop coefficient over the winding (Cpd) are found mainly controlled by the Reynolds number at the winding pass inlet (Re) and the ratio of horizontal duct height to vertical duct width. The correlations for Pfi and Cpd with the dimensionless controlling parameters are derived from CFD parametric sweeps and verified by experimental tests. The effects of different liquid types on the flow distribution and pressure drop are investigated using the correlations derived. Reverse flows at the bottom part of winding passes are shown by both CFD simulations and experimental measurements. The hot-spot factor, H, is interpreted as a dimensionless temperature at the hot-spot and the effects of operational conditions e.g. ambient temperature and loading level on H are analysed. For ON cooling modes, the flow is driven by buoyancy forces and hot-streak dynamics play a vital role in determining fluid flow and temperature distributions. The dimensionless liquid flow and temperature distributions and H are all found to be controlled by Re, Pr and Gr/Re2. An optimal design and operational regime in terms of obtaining the minimum H, is identified from CFD parametric sweeps, where the effects of buoyancy forces are balanced by the effects of inertial forces. Reverse flows are found at the top part of winding passes, opposite to the OD results. The total liquid flow rates of different liquids for the same winding geometry with the same power loss distribution in an ON cooling mode are determined and with these determined total liquid flow rates, the effects of different liquids on fluid flow and temperature distributions are investigated by CFD simulations. The CFD modelling work on disc-type transformer windings in steady state present in this PhD thesis is based on the dimensional analyses on the fluid flow and heat transfer in the windings. Therefore, the results obtained are universally applicable and of the simplest form as well. In addition, the dimensional analyses have provided insight into how the flow and temperature distribution patterns are controlled by the dimensionless controlling parameters, regardless of the transformer operational conditions and the coolant liquid types used.

Kvällar, krogar och käftsmällar : En studie om polisens arbete i hot spots för misshandelsanmälningar i Uppsala innerstad

Schmidt, Linna, Thor, Ida January 2016 (has links)
Inledning: Forskning har visat att miljön där brott sker är avgörande för att förstå kriminalitetsmönster och dess koncentration i och till olika områden, även kallade hot spots. Socialekologisk teori ämnar förklara distributionen av kriminalitet i städer. Syftet med aktuell studie var dels att analysera vilka platser i en stad som har flest anmälningar för misshandelsbrott för individer över 18 år, dels att analysera polisarbetet i och anslutning till dessa platser i Uppsala innerstad under åren 2013 – 2015. I denna studie har Brottsmönsterteorin applicerats för att förklara resultatet. Metod: I denna studie tillämpades både kvalitativ och kvantitativ metod. Materialet som användes var polisregister för misshandelsbrott, dokument som beskriver polisens arbete samt en intervju. Anmälningarna från polisregistret fördes in i ArcGIS, ett datorprogram för visualisering av kartor, för att ta fram hot spots. Vidare analyserades polisens arbete på eller i nära anslutning till dessa platser. Resultat: I studien identifierades fyra hot spots. Resultatet visade att anmälningsfrekvensen hade minskat i två av fyra hot spots (hot spot 2 och 3). Det totala antalet misshandelsanmälningar i Uppsala innerstad hade minskat i förhållande befolkningsmängden i Uppsala kommun. Det problemorienterade polisarbetet fokuserade under treårsperioden på platser med hög alkoholkonsumtion och med en stor omsättning av människor. Slutsats: Kartläggning av olika typer av brott är effektivt för att arbeta brottspreventivt. För vissa typer av brott så som misshandel, kan det för polisen vara väl så effektivt att arbeta problemorienterat i hot spots såsom mot individer. / <p>2016-06-01</p>

Assessment of the Emission Trading Policy: A case study for the Acid Rain Program in the United States

Wang, Qian January 2004 (has links)
Various environmental standards have been established for the sake of public health and ecosystem diversity since environmental awareness was awakened in the late 1960s. However, the results were often unsatisfactory. Either environmental goals achieved were far from desired, or regional development was hampered due to some unpractical high environmental standards. The failure of these environmental standards resulted in innovations of environmental policy instruments to find practical environmental goals and methods approaching them scientifically. Another class of environmental policy instruments, so called economic incentive policies, is established based on environmental economics theory. A neo-classical economics framework is founded for setting appropriate environmental goals and assessing efficiency of environmental policies in reaching these goals. This thesis summarizes rationales and factors affecting the performance for environmental policy instruments under the neo-classical economic framework. Since the acid rain program, the first large-scale implementation of the emissions trading policy, has achieved great success in reducing SO&#8322; emissions from the electricity generators in the United States, the emission trading policy attracted many interests in this kind of environmental policy instrument. Many countries, such as China, plan to adopt the emissions trading policy to address various environmental problems. Hence, factors leading to the success of this program should be identified. Potential risks and problems must be addressed as well lest the emissions trading policy causes some problem during implementation. Feasibility of implementing an emissions trading policy will be discussed based on these results. Three kinds of geographic analyses, change detection, network analysis, and hot spots identification, are conducted in this thesis to study the effectiveness and efficiency of the acid rain program. It is found that the acid rain program is successful in improving the sustainability of the economic development in the United States. But the effectiveness is not as great as the high emissions cutting rate achieved in this program. In addition, the acid rain program lowers the compliance costs of achieving the environmental goal since the radius of the high quality coal service area doubles. Lastly, hot spots are found around the Ohio River valley and Los Angeles. Suggestions on integrating geographic factors into the economic framework are presented in order to eliminate the risk of causing severe environmental problems. Finally, the feasibility of migrating the emissions trading policy to China is discussed. Further work can be conducted in this direction to realize sustainable development quicker with lower costs.
